Yeah, y’all need to watch the video before you downvote. It’s satire and speaking to exactly why you are downvoting it. Love me some Dunks!

[–] smeg@feddit.uk 11 points 1 month ago

I think putting something like (Dunky) in the title would probably have helped

[–] SatyrSack@feddit.org 8 points 1 month ago (5 children)

It's also just not funny. I get that it's trying to be, but in my opinion, it doesn't land.

"Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man."

Actually it is funny, I know this to be objectively true as I am the sole judge of comedy.

You're nitpicking and biased. I win. Bye bye.

It's got a little something for everyone

[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

This is the first Dunkey-type comment chain on Lemmy

[–] jacksilver@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

His videos have been pretty weak for a while. Happy that he's been branching out into publishing games though.

Maybe... Hear me out here...

Maybe people just don't like it and don't think it's particularly funny?

[–] Railcar8095@lemm.ee 17 points 1 month ago

Humor is subjective, but just in case it's good to clarify it's a joke.

With current international politics it's hard to know the difference

[–] SatyrSack@feddit.org 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

From what I understand of the Lemmy userbase, this type of humor generally just does not play here as much as it would at somewhere like Reddit.

The people who enjoyed the joke just upvote and move on. But yes, we do have a lot of folks who do not embrace obliquity.
